    $100k a year, let alone a month is a distant dream for me at the moment... getting closer though :)

    You could make $100,000 per month from $0 in one year... You just have to release something very amazing. It is very difficult nowadays.

    I am new to the forum but after a month of planning here are my goals:

    1.Get my two personal blogs setup and running with a small following
    bloggingfataway.com and budcalabrese.com
    2. Start a series of mini niche sites
    3. Get 5-10 bans stores up and running
    4. Try to learn more about web design (xhtl,css, php, mysql)
    5. Learn way to monetize my sites and hopefully be generating $100 a month
    though my sites
    6. Work on continually improving my work

    Also a maybe but semi on the back burner - get my MCSA (I am a network guy by trade)

    So far I have one blog up but working on content. I just got a bans store up and having the design outsourced as we speak. Just bought 2 web design books. Hopefully I can achieve these goals and shot to surpass them.

    2008.... Hire a new php programmers, find another SEM/SEO person for the team, grow by 150 sales each month. Get my retirement plan in shape as I'm about to turn 30 and its all important.

    I totally agree, average ideas get average money, great ideas and hard work gets more money.

    I always tell everyone to look for the right idea, not every idea!

    Thanks for starting this thread... got me thinking which I often forget to do. Here are some initial thoughts that I need to put into a plan:

    - Sell House
    - Move to North Carolina (before my Vermont-born wife changes her mind!)
    - Sell one of my businesses (too many irons in the fire)
    - Maintain/Grow revenue from websites (with end goal of quitting day job)
    - Migrate primary sites to next generation - new design, updated scripts
    - Launch 3 new sizable site ideas
    - Retire from the day job (this is the major end goal ... all the rest is a means to an end)

    I sell some items on Ebay and other sites. I think I have to be more aggressive and I need to find more suppliers who are reliable.

    I still haven't figured out how much I should be making!

    thanks m8 for the comment. I will work on keeping it updated too. Btw where is your plan? Just curious i like seeing these plans helps to make your own so they are not to easy to accomplish but not crazy either.

    Briefly, I intend to sell power plant equipment, construction machinery, bulk cement, commodities, properties and more like this. I'm the internet edge within my network. Of course the whole plan is a bit more complex. To draw more valid attention from potential customers I started doing research on SEO and landed here.
